I like how we can choose between point and click and wasd, but can we get an auto-run? I prefer the keyboard method, and holding my finger on the W gets tiring.

That is all :)

    its not the same then, couse you only run when the direction doesnt change and if you klick on right or left, still run into this fixed direction, it would be nice if the character would just run and you can shoose where b:pleased

    Why would you have to click around? if you click to select players or mobs the direction dont change, but why would you want to click on the ground? b:question

    And when changing directions, clicking again in the sky in a new direction or clicking on arrows to change direction is the same: 1 click.

    and btw lol, we are talking about a SOOO small and without importance trivial matter, compared to all the other major fixes this game needs b:shocked

    It's already implemented in all the other PW games.
    You click the link and you run over land to the spot where you need to go. This is a logical way of setting up the autopathing system because you have to run in all those games.

    In PWI we can fly, ... so autopathing over these preprogrammed lines on land, gets weird when you start doing that in the air. Making a different autopathing system for flight and running in one game seems to hard to do, without actually creating something from scratch. So to get it implemented in game would take a really, really long time.
    I'm not there to make you survive in PWI, that's your job

    Auto-run is not unique to WoW.

    Point and click works, but like I said, I just prefer the keyboard :)

    umm i think popple means just a toggle-type key for walk instead of holdin down the w key for your entire trip but, not a auto-nav gps-type system like ESO and others have (which by the way is actually very annoying at times)

    I agree with popple tho, i'd love an autorun/autowalk feature other then just "clicking the sky", specifically for when doing BH's, Frostcovered grounds for example, you've killed 2 of the 3 bosses, the mobs are all gone, you've ported back to arch to cashin and pick up bh3 for wyv, stone back in, and have a long walk ahead of you back to where the rest of the group is waiting.. "clicking the sky" really isnt an option here as you need to turn quite a bit, so you just click spots on the ground or walls ahead of you where you're going, holy path away, and once you get to where you've clicked, click a new spot.. it'd be nice to just hit some sort of walk toggle key and just steer from there, leaving your mouse free to click holypath each time it becomes available, as well as any speed boosts you may have in your inventory that you wanna use..

    I just recently started playing this game. I actually really like it, it's really fun. However I found the lack of key mapping options to be annoying. I noticed there was an old post years ago about this and I guess there still is no option to map a key for auto-run? Clicking on the screen to move is nice but not a very friendly way. I think most players of video games will consent that they like as many options as they can get for key mapping. Not having an auto-run key option is rather annoying.

    I rarely use the mouse to click the screen to direct my character. I thought it was weird that I couldn't left click the screen in order to change my point of view, I went to check and see if there were so way to change what my mouse buttons do and I guess there isn't. So am I missing something or is this just the way the game is now and forever?

    This is an old thread, but I'm gonna bump it just 'cause I totally agree with this quote right here ~ this game needs an autorun/autowalk feature! So we can just bind "moving forward" to one key press, & then steer as we're moving from there ~ it's pretty annoying to have to constantly hold down W to keep our character moving, actually.

    This is the only mmo I've ever played that lacks this feature...

    we DO have an autowalk feature, it's just too dumb to go around obstacles. alt-click on the map, or click anywhere in the minimap.

    while your character is automoving, you can hit any of wasd to temporarily sidestep an obstacle or whatever, as well as hit space to jump. it'll still keep automoving towards your target when you let go of the keyboard. of course you can also hit speed buff skills while automoving, too.

    Does it really matter when you can fly over any obstacles?

    It will be nice if they have the kind of Auto Run from Forsaken World.

    Instead of just going straight >< which is annoying and sometimes cause death when you are AFK >.> FW goes in a certain path Auto which makes it well kinda safe
